It is surely no coincidence that this historic proclamation comes exactly 40 years after the Lubavitcher Rebbe called on men, women, and children around the world to unite on the Shabbos before Shavuos, just as the Jewish people stood “k’ish echad b’lev echad” — “as one man with one heart” — before receiving the Torah. The Rebbe described this appeal for achdus as a “bakasha nafshis” — a deeply personal request.
